Using the powers of the office of President of the United States, BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA JR, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in disregard of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has repeatedly engaged in conduct violating the constitutional rights of citizens, impairing the due and proper administration of justice and the conduct of lawful inquiries, or contravening the laws governing agencies of the executive branch and the purposed of these agencies.

This conduct has included one or more of the following:

1. He has, acting personally and through his subordinates and agents, endeavored to obtain from the Internal Revenue Service, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens AND GROUPS OF CITIZENS, confidential information contained in income tax returns for purposes not authorized by law, and to cause, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, income tax audits or other income tax investigations to be initiated or conducted in a discriminatory manner.

— it is not crazy to talk about impeaching President Obama. And if you’re going to have a congressional hearing about systematic presidential lawlessness, it is only natural that the word “impeachment” gets bandied about. Not only is impeachment the intended constitutional remedy for systematic presidential lawlessness; it is, practically speaking, the only remedy.It is beyond cavil that the president is willfully undermining the constitutional system that he swore to preserve, protect, and defend. He presumes to rewrite, and dramatically alter, the laws he vowed to execute faithfully — not once in a blue moon but as a deliberate scheme of governance. ...

... Most of Obama’s unconstitutional usurpations are happening in broad daylight. He brags that his “waivers” — i.e., his unilateral amending, repealing, or non-enforcement — of statutory provisions show him to be far-seeing and pragmatic, not lawless. That, of course, is the standard dictatorial self-image. Obama is the answer to Tom Friedman’s China-envying prayers. ...

... the Framers armed Congress with two responsive weapons: the power of the purse and the power of impeachment. ...

... Today’s Democrats, however, are less members of a party than of the movement Left. Their objective, like Obama’s, is fundamental transformation of a society rooted in individual liberty and private property to one modeled on top-down, redistributionist statism. ...

... Democrats want the president to use the enormous raw power vested in his office by Article II to achieve statist transformation. If he does so, they will support him. They’ll get back to obsessing over the “rule of law” if, by some misfortune, the Republicans someday win another presidential election.

... With Democrats energized by Obama’s lawbreaking, and Republicans paralyzed by the prospect of government shutdowns, there is no realistic prospect that Congress will starve Obama of funding. That leaves impeachment as the sole remaining constitutional safeguard against executive imperialism.

There is nothing else....

... President Obama is intentionally and sweepingly violating his oath of office.

He is not faithfully executing federal law — he picks, chooses, “waives,” and generally makes up law as he goes along.

He has willfully and materially misled the American people — his Obamacare and Benghazi lies being only the most notorious examples.

He has been woefully derelict in his duty to protect and defend Americans overseas.

His administration trumped up a shameful prosecution (under the guise of a “supervised release violation”) against a filmmaker in order to bolster the “Benghazi massacre was caused by an anti-Muslim video” charade.

His administration has used the federal bureaucracy to usurp Congress’s legislative powers and to punish political enemies.

Obama has presumed to make recess appointments when Congress was not in recess.

His administration intentionally allowed firearms to be transferred to Mexican drug cartels, predictably resulting in numerous violent crimes, including the murder of a Border Patrol agent.

His administration — and, in particular, the Justice Department — has routinely stonewalled lawmakers and frustrated their capacity to perform agency oversight, to the point that the attorney general has been held in contempt of Congress.

The Obama Justice Department, moreover, has filed vexatious lawsuits against sovereign states over their attempts to vindicate their constitutional authorities (and, indeed, to enforce federal immigration laws), while the Justice Department itself adheres to racially discriminatory enforcement policies in violation of the Constitution and federal civil-rights laws. ...... If the only issue were commission of high crimes and misdemeanors, the Constitution requires only one for impeachment — not the Obama pace, which is more like one per week. ......High crimes and misdemeanors are a subordinate consideration. In an impeachment case, they are necessary but they are not close to being sufficient. Because impeachment is a political remedy, its most essential component is the popular political will to remove a president from power. ...... The question is not whether the president has done wrong — that will rarely be in dispute. The question is how convinced the public is that a president’s continued hold on power profoundly threatens their safety, prosperity, and sense of what kind of country we should be.As things now stand, the public is not convinced. There is no political will to remove the president....... Two things, however, are certain. Absent the political will to remove the president, he will remain president no matter how many high crimes and misdemeanors he stacks up. And absent the removal of the president, the United States will be fundamentally transformed.

THEREFORE. THE PRIMARY MISSION OF THIS BLOG WILL BE TO HELP CONVINCE AS MANY IN THE PUBLIC THAT OBAMA DESERVES TO BE IMPEACHED AND THAT HE MUST BE TO PRESERVE OUR DEMOCRACY.

TO ACCOMPLISH THIS CENTRISTS AND MODERATES WILL HAVE TO BECOME AS CONVINCED AS WE HAVE BEEN SINCE 2007, THAT OBAMA IS A RADICAL, WHOSE RADICAL POLICES ARE BEING INFLICTED UPON US UN-DEMOCRATICALLY.

(Reuters) - Iran is moving ahead with testing more efficient uranium enrichment technology, a spokesman for its atomic energy agency said on Saturday, in news that may concern world powers who last month agreed a deal to curb Tehran's atomic activities.

Spokesman Behrouz Kamalvandi was quoted by state news agency IRNA as saying that initial testing on a new generation of more sophisticated centrifuges had been completed, underlining Iran's determination to keep refining uranium in what it says is work to make fuel for a planned network of nuclear power plants.

MONTREAL—Lev Tahor, the radical Jewish group accused of raising their children in squalid conditions, has operated for more than a decade as a religious charity with millions of dollars flowing through its accounts, the Star has learned.

The group that is alleged to exert strict control over its members’ liberty, health and finances amassed nearly $6 million in assets at its peak and regularly pulled in annual revenues of hundreds of thousands of dollars for the operation of its reclusive community in Ste-Agathe-des-Monts, north of Montreal.

Financial filings show Lev Tahor’s two charitable guises — Congregation Riminov and the Society for Spiritual Development — are run by the group’s spiritual leader Rabbi Shlomo Helbrans and an eight-person inner circle.

Congregation Riminov was registered as a tax-exempt religious charity in 2001, shortly after Helbrans moved from Israel to Canada, where he would later be granted political asylum (the rabbi was deported to Israel after serving prison time in New York for the second-degree kidnapping of a young religious recruit).

The charity had a rapid rise in its financial performance under its stated goal: “the operation of a synagogue and provision of assistance to those in need.”

With the kind of influence they go by, it's more like the operation of a mosque.

An Israeli source with knowledge of the Lev Tahor group said community members survive mainly on government welfare payments that are given to the group’s leadership. The money is allegedly then rationed out to the 40-odd families, which has been described as a method of exerting control over members.

“Already the payments to families in Quebec are generous. It’s what, $1,700, $2,000 for a family that has five or six children?” said the source in Israel who has assisted former Lev Tahor members.

“But the money doesn’t go to the families. The money goes to the sect’s leadership.”

No doubt about that. Unfortunately, in regards to the children they're keeping:

Children’s Aid officials in Ontario have not commented on the case and have so far failed to act on the Quebec judge’s order.

Well this is angering. The authorities have failed to act to protect the children. It's bad enough they let a man with a criminal record into Canada, now they won't even act properly to help out the children in this sick cult? Must this be taken all the way to the Canadian supreme court?

The alleged murderers of Lee Rigby lay in wait for a serviceman to kill and chose the Fusilier just because he was "the soldier that was spotted first", a jury has heard.

Michael Adebolajo, 28, told detectives in interview that he and his accomplice Michael Adebowale, 22, decided that a soldier "was the most fair target" as they had joined the army understanding that their life would be at risk, the Old Bailey heard.

The men are accused of mowing Fusilier Rigby down in a car before hacking him to death with a meat cleaver and knives near Woolwich Barracks in south east London on May 22.

During a police interview from June 1 played to the court, Adebolajo, covered by a blue blanket with a copy of the Koran in front of him, said he had "set out determined that this way we will obey the command of Allah".

The court heard Adebolajo, who referred to Adebowale as Ismail, claim that the alleged murder was not "a personal vendetta".

He said: "I have never met the family of Lee Rigby. Quite possibly I may have walked past one of them in the street. I do not hate them. I do not hate them, nor does my brother Ismail, he does not. This is not a personal vendetta."

His claim he doesn't hate them is nothing more than pure taqqiya, and army personnel are no more legitimate targets than civilians. In fact, for all we know, they could very easily have gone on a rampage with their car in the neighborhood running down other passers-by, and even attacked them with a machete.

Furthermore, the murderer confirmed he set out to commit the violent crime at the Koran's bidding, and that should be enough to set off alarm bells with any realist.

At the home of Adebolajo's father, police retrieved books and two laptops belonging to the suspect containing articles and lectures with titles including "Extreme Islam", "The book of Jihad" and a magazine published by Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula entitled "Inspire," prosecutor Oliver Glasgow told the court.

One passage from Extreme Islam, that had been highlighted, read: "Islam is always in need of martyrs. The revival of courage and zeal is essential for the revival of a nation."

The court also heard that Adebolajo told police that Britain's MI5 security service had visited him earlier in 2013 and knew where he lived.

At the home of co-accused Adebowale, police also found a computer and USB containing documents and lectures covering topics such as jihad and martyrdom.

And they wonder how these abominations end up becoming such repulsive monsters.

I personally feel he is the son of Frank Marshall Davis because it simply explains EVERYTHING in Obama's amazing and strange bio, but it doesn't matter.

The policies Obama advocates are evil and lead inevitably to serfdom whether enacted by a deceitful crypto-muslim/crypto-marxist or by a garden variety, homegrown, red diaper baby/postmodern leftist.

But these policies would never have been accepted by the American people if they had been presented truthfully, honestly.

And deceitfulness of the magnitude perpetrated by Obama could never have been perpetrated by someone who was a garden variety liberal and certainly not by a moderate.

History reveals that only utopianistic extremists have been willing to tell lies of this magnitude - and cheat and bribe, (and even ultimately kill) - because if you believe you can achieve what you believe will be utopia it's worth it. "You have to break eggs to make an omelet."

This is true of islamist utopianists and collectivist utopianists.

The politicians down the line from Obama - (like Reid and Pelosi and so on...) - are the usual mix of dupes and thieves - most are in it for themselves or for the machine that serves to perpetuate their political careers and their hold on power. Hence all the corrupt deals like CGI and Solyndra and the corrupting of our federal bureaucracy as in the IRS and EPA and BATF - each involved in promulgating and enforcing policies which aided Obama's political allies and cronies and attacked his political foes.

Those of us who saw through the phony biography of Obama and accepted the meaning of his indisputable lifelong associations - (associations which were absolutely central to his meteoric rise) - realized we were dealing with an extremely radical leftist and - because he lied about all these relationships - an enormous liar.

The past five years have proven this to be the case.

Frank Marshall Davis + Tom and Bill Ayers + Vernon Jarrett and Veronica Jarrett + father Pfleger + Jeremiah Wright + Farrakhan + Kellman (Alisnky) + The New Party + the SEIU + ACORN + Edward Said and Rashid Khalidi + the Daley's + Blago' + Rezko + how poorly he treated Jane Dystel (his first literary agent) + how he got Jack Ryan, his main foe, out of the US Senate race so he could face Keyes - and "IF YOU LIKE YOUR PLAN YOU CAN KEEP YOUR PLAN, PERIOD!" - well, these add up.

There is nothing that subtracts from this sum, or from the obvious conclusion.

Obama is a mendacious, deceitful corrupt collectivist willing to do anything to gain power and use it to transform America from the lone hyperpower and defender of individual liberty into a mediocre socialist state dependent on consensus of transnational entities (themselves controlled by Russia and China and the Third World) for security. In other words: a postmodern dream.

And our economy, our standing in the world an the security of our allies and of our values in the world have all suffered as a result of Obama's efforts at transformation.

Unfortunately for us, Obama and his postmodern leftist comrades win no matter what:

If their policies succeed in transforming us in just another weak socialist nation, then they win.

If their policies fail but nevertheless weaken us to the degree that we can no longer defend the free world, then they also win.

The scarcity of good jobs has been one of the most troubling aspects of the economic crisis facing southern Europe, particularly for younger people with little job experience. In 2013, nearly half of 15- to 29-year-olds in six southern European countries are underemployed -- meaning they are either unemployed or working part time but wanting full-time work.

IF THE EUROPEAN MODE WAS WORKING, THEN THEY'D HAVE BETTER EMPLOYMENT NUMBERS THAN US - AND BETTER FINANCES.

THEY HAVE NEITHER.

YET THE AMERICAN LEFT - LED BY OBAMA - IS TRYING TO TRANSFORM AMERICA INTO JUST ANOTHER EUROPEAN NATION.

AND A HAS RAISED SEVERAL CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUES - NOT ALL OF WHICH HAVE BEEN RESOLVED,

THAT RAISED MOST PEOPLE'S DEDUCTIBLES, AND RAISES THEIR PREMIUMS, AND REDUCES THEIR DOCTORS NETWORKS,

AND REDUCES THE HOSPITALS THEY MAY GO TO,

AND IT WILL LEAD TO MILLIONS OF VOLUNTARILY PURCHASED POLICIES BEING CANCELLED - AND THOSE PEOPLE BEING FORCED INTO EXCHANGES WITH LIMITED CHOICES OFFERING PLANS WHICH COVER A FIXED RANGE F BENEFITS MANY DON'T WANT AND DON'T NEED.

DO YOU THINK THAT WOULD HAVE PASSED?OF COURSE NOT.THAT'S WHY THEY LIED.

THIS LIE IS NO DIFFERENT THAN WHEN HITLER LIED TO CHAMBERLAIN OR KIM LIED TO CLINTON.

THY LIED BECAUSE IT WAS THE ONLY WAY TO GET WHAT THEY WANTED.

IT WAS PREMEDITATED - AND CALCULATED.

OBAMA'S LIE IS THE BIGGEST AND MOST HARMFUL LIE EVER TOLD TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC.

OBAMA DIDN'T LIE ABOUT A BLOWJOB - LIKE CLINTON.

OBAMA LIED ABOUT HIS BIGGEST POLICY GOAL.

OBAMA LIED ABOUT ONE OF OUR MOST BASIC NEEDS.

AND BY SO DOING, OBAMA HARMED MILLIONS.

IF OBAMA HAS ONE ATOM OF HONESTY AND A SHRED OF RESPECT FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, THEN HE WOULD RESIGN,

BUT OBAMA HAS NOT ONE ATOM OF HONESTY.

OBAMA IS NOTHING IF HE IS NOT A DECEITFUL, DISHONEST, DISRESPECTFUL PIECE OF SHIT.

OBAMA IS A TOTALLY DECEITFUL, DISHONEST, AND DISRESPECTFUL PIECE OF SHIT.

COUNTER-terrorism officers have charged a figurehead of last year's Muslim riots and infamous Sharia "whipping" case over an attempted ATM ram-raid in Sydney's north.

Wassim Fayad, 46, one of two head spokesmen during the riots, was arrested at 7.30am last Friday at Auburn and charged over the failed ram-raid involving at least two other men at North Ryde on May 15.

The investigation, kept under wraps until now, has been continuing for several months, running at the same time as another case with the Joint-Counter Terrorism Team examining a syndicate sending young Australian Muslims to fight in the Syrian civil war. Police also have been investigating Fayad's activities to see whether he has any connection with the Syrian syndicate.

While the ATM attack would normally be left with local authorities, counter terror police are understood to have led the investigation because of their interest in how the alleged assailants had planned to spend the proceeds of the crime.

There's also a few more interesting names connected with this crime:

An associate of al-Ahmadzai, Mirwaice Rahemi, 23, pleaded guilty this year to conspiracy to commit an armed robbery on a cash-in-transit van at Cecil Hills on September 28, 2011.

Rahemi was photographed outside the Downing Centre Local Court in June 2011 supporting Muslim woman Carnita Matthews, who in 2010 claimed police tried to rip off her burqa but was later found guilty of making a false statement. The charge was subsequently overturned on appeal.

Her husband, Hamdi Alqudsi, 39, was on Tuesday charged with being the principal of the syndicate sending Australians to Syria.

Interesting how people who took part in atrocious matters also have ties to these other atrocious matters.

What a sad case we have here. Pope Francis has proven himself potentially more disappointing than Pope Bendict. First, he's sanctioned Islam (Hat tip: Atlas Shrugs):

253. In order to sustain dialogue with Islam, suitable training is essential for all involved, not only so that they can be solidly and joyfully grounded in their own identity, but so that they can also acknowledge the values of others, appreciate the concerns underlying their demands and shed light on shared beliefs. We Christians should embrace with affection and respect Muslim immigrants to our countries in the same way that we hope and ask to be received and respected in countries of Islamic tradition. I ask and I humbly entreat those countries to grant Christians freedom to worship and to practice their faith, in light of the freedom which followers of Islam enjoy in Western countries! Faced with disconcerting episodes of violent fundamentalism, our respect for true followers of Islam should lead us to avoid hateful generalisations, for authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence.

Seriously? Has he not read Sura 47:4, which says, "So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike [their] necks..."? How can he let down millions of Christians (and Jews) across the world this way?

And this week, he's let everybody down further, by claiming "rampant capitalism" is the source of the world's ills (hat tip: Big Peace). Why can't he distinguish between different forms of capitalism and understand that crony capitalism is the real bad form of capitalism?

I'm sure plenty wanted to hope this pope would make a good asset in dealing with badness in the world. But alas, this was probably to be expected. It's very sad, because it only leads to division, and that's not what we need now.

RELIAPUNDIT ADDS:

IF MOHAMED PBUH THE PROPHET PRACTICED AUTHENTIC ISLAM, THEN SO DO THE JIHADISTS.

EITHER MOHAMED PBUH UNDERSTOOD ISLAM, OR THE POPE DOES, THEY BOTH CAN'T BE RIGHT.

I ACCEPT THE POPE'S KNOWLEDGE OF ROMAN CATHOLICISM TO BE AS GOOD AS ANY, BUT MOHAMED KNOWS ISLAM BETTER THAN THIS OR ANY POPE.

THE SOONER NON-MUSLIMS ACCEPT THAT JIHADIST EXTREMISM IS AT THE CORE OF ISLAM - AND NOT AN ALIEN INFECTION - THE SOONER WE CAN TAKE EFFECTIVE MEASURES TO DEFEND OUR LIVES, OUR CULTURE AND OUR CIVILIZATION.

BULLSHIT LIKE THE POPE IS PEDDLING ACTUALLY HELPS THE ENEMIES OF OUR CIVILIZATION.

About 40 Norwegian Christian leaders and clerics held a special ceremony in the Knesset Wednesday to formally apologize on Norway's behalf for their role during the Holocaust and the 1993 Oslo Accords.

The delegation featured representatives from 21 different organizations, who were greeted by Knesset Christian Caucus members MKs Rabbi Dov Lipman (Yesh Atid) and Gila Gamliel (Likud). The representatives then delivered a speech expressing support for Israel, as well as reservations about the Oslo Accords, which they claimed "rips apart the Land of Israel."

[...] Chairman of the International Christian Embassy in Norway, Doug Aoibind Juliussen, stated "We Christian leaders in Norway, want to apologize and ask for forgiveness from the Jewish people for Norway's attitude towards you from the Holocaust through Oslo Accords and until this day."

The Chairman of the Knesset caucus to promote relations with Christian communities around the world, Josh Rinstein, told Arutz Sheva at the end of the visit that "the Christian leaders apologize for anti-Semitism... the Oslo agreement, and the boycott Norway supports [against Israel]."

He continued that the process of asking for forgiveness "is just, and there are many more countries which need to ask for forgiveness" and emphasized that the point is not just to apologize, "but to work for the benefit of the State of Israel."

He talks sense, and we owe him a lot of thanks for being brave enough to lead this delegation.

Pamela Geller (via Jihad Watch) wrote about her trip to Boston for the lawsuit she filed against the MBTA for refusing to run their ads, while continuing to run an anti-Israel ad they initially took down after the outrage it caused, then suddenly put up again. It's regrettable these are the kind of people running major outfits today, people who have no respect for humanity.

The Gloria Center promotes Barry Rubin & Wolfgang G. Schwanitz's new book, "Nazis, Islamists and the Making of the Modern Middle East", which discusses the history of Nazi-Islamic collaborations during WW2, and the middle east that came after.

NYTIMES - SAN FRANCISCO— There were times — after he told his parents he was gay, for example, and his mother wept and his father tried to hit him — when Fredy Bolvito curled up on a bench in Union Square here and cried because he had AIDS and no job and no place to stay and he felt, he said, that “my life was over.”

But there were also days when he sat on the bench in the square and sang “The Star-Spangled Banner,” looking up at the flags atop the Westin St. Francis hotel and thinking, “That’s breathtaking, that’s my American dream.” Or when he mingled with tourists, giving them directions to the cable cars, or gazed through the windows at the shoppers in Macy’s and was saddened by how rich and healthy they looked.

He scavenged for meals in garbage bins. He avoided the homeless shelters, where he had heard that gays were taunted, or worse. His “angel,” he said, was in the center of the square: the statue “Victory,” a trident in one hand, a wreath in the other.

“I would look at it at night and think, ‘Oh my God, that’s my hope,’ ” he said.

San Francisco is often viewed as a Mecca for gay people. But the warmth of the city’s welcome can quickly vanish for those who are poor.

City leaders were startled this year when a survey revealed that 29 percent of the homeless population —about 2,100 of the 7,350 people counted — identified themselves as gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender.

Bevan Dufty, the director of the city’s homelessness initiatives, said he was surprised the percentage held true for all age groups, even adults and the elderly. “What was really staggering was to see that it didn’t change as you got older,” he said.

The survey found that gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender people who are homeless had higher rates of disability than homeless heterosexuals and were more likely to be homeless when they arrived in the city. Some of them were older gay men with AIDS who had been evicted from their apartments or people who had been cast out by their families in other states. Others, like Mr. Bolvito, a native of Guatemala who graduated from college in Hayward, Calif., with a degree in political science and once worked as a real estate agent, had good jobs that disappeared during the recession.

JUDGING BY THEIR FREQUENCY AND PROMINENCE, LGBT STORIES ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT CONTEMPORARY ISSUE - AT LEAST ACCORDING TO THE POSTMODERN LEFTISTS EDITING THE NYTIMES.

THIS IS FINE - IF YOU WANT TO BE THE LGBT NEWSPAPER OF RECORD.

BUT IT'S A HUGE STEP DOWN FOR THE NEWSPAPER WHICH WAS ONCE THE INTERNATIONAL PAPER OF RECORD.

THE NYTIMES HAS TRADED IN THEIR ONCE WIDELY WELL-REGARDED OBJECTIVE REPORTING FOR PUSHING THE GRAMSCIAN AGENDA.

THEY'VE GONE FROM OBJECTIVE REPORTAGE TO SUBVERSIVE LIBERTINAGE.

THE MARQUIS DE SADE WOULD BE THRILLED.

GEORGE JONES AND HENRY RAYMOND - THE FOUNDERS OF THE NYTIMES - ARE SPINNING IN THEIR GRAVES.

Libya's General National Council assembly (GNC) voted on Wednesday, December 4 to make Islamic Sharia law the base for all legislation and for all state institutions, a decision that may impact banking, criminal and financial law, according to Reuters.

"Islamic law is the source of legislation in Libya," the GNC said in a statement after the vote. "All state institutions need to comply with this."

The immediate scope of the decision was not clear, but a special committee would review all existing laws to guarantee they comply with Sharia.

No doubt about that. But will there come an uprising like what brought down Mohammed Morsi? Maybe, but for now, don't be too sure.

One News Now spoke about a report Fox ran on a Minnesota swimming facility that's been catering to Islam:

Fox News reported that a YMCA facility in Minnesota accommodated Muslims who wanted a swim class to be used by women only. During the class, the pool is shut down to the public, the men's locker room is locked, and female life guards are used.

Similar Muslim-friendly classes are starting in towns across the Midwest, which is evidence that "Sharia law is now changing everything," a Fox reporter declared.

And a local Jewish leader, Jan Markell, agrees with their assessment. Some leftist sites have written dismissive, reprehensible responses to the Fox report, but they're right, this particular kind of pandering is accomodating sharia, and the cowards doing it should be ashamed.

BASED ON THE PRESIDENT'S "IF YOU LIKE YOUR HEALTHCARE, THEN YOU CAN KEEP YOUR HEALTHCARE." LIE, I BELIEVE THE UNCLE.

HERE IS ONYANGO AND BARACK SR AND BARACK JR AND FRANK DAVIS:

WHO DOES OBAMA RESEMBLE, HIS FATHER AND UNCLE, OR FRANK DAVIS?

I THINK AN ENTERPRISING INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALIST OUGHT TO BE ABLE TO FIND A WAY TO GET A DNA SAMPLE OF OBAMA'S AND COMPARE IT TO UNCLE ONYANGO'S DNA AND DNA FROM MARK DAVIS - (MARK IS FRANK'S LEGITIMATE SON, AND HE HAS VOLUNTEERED FOR THIS TEST).

I THINK A RECENT MEDAL OF HONOR WINNER OR SOMEONE WHO RECEIVED A BILL SIGNING PEN FROM OBAMA MIGHT HAVE SOME OF OBAMA'S DNA.

IS THIS GOOD NEWS FOR ANYONE?NOT REALLY.BOTTOM-LINE:BETWEEN THE USA'S QUANTITATIVE EASING; THE EURO'S ON-GOING DEBT DEBACLE, AND CHINA'S POTEMKIN ECONOMY... WELL, IT ALL REALLY MEANS THAT THERE IS NO GLOBAL CURRENCY WORTH ANYTHING ANYMORE.WE'RE ALL BITCOIN NOW.

There are two simple reasons why this argument is unbelievably ... EVIL:

1 - the older patient has paid into medicare/medicaid his/her whole life. At nearly 7% per year of annual income this might amount to about $10,00/year for 40 years or $400,000 not including interest. This means that the patient has clearly paid for their late-in-life treatment, and denying it to them amount not only to murder, but theft - and fraud.

2 - the decision to receive medical intervention should always be a personal one between the doctor and the patient (and patient's family, perhaps). The state should keep its nose out of this decision - especially since the state stands to receive a double bonus is treatment is denied, as the state will save both the money that might have gone to treatment and also the social security benefits that might have gone to the patient had s/he lived longer.

Obamacare increases the likelihood that the state will interfere and deny care - the IPAB was designed to do just that.

This is another instance of a liberal utopianist policy actually bringing on a dystopianist reality.

Forced abortions of less-than-ideal fetuses won't be far behind.

And then come the gas chambers.

For the common good - as they always say...

Sigh.

We can stop this nightmare from becoming reality by stopping Obama and his utopianist comrades.

Law in the patriarchal Arab countries, as in the Ottoman Empire, has sustained the cultural tradition that women have an inferior status. Men are only mildly punished or not punished at all for murdering a female relative whose behavior is judged as bringing dishonor to the family.

The leniency toward honor-killings is enshrined in legal practice in Arab countries. In the territories ruled by Palestinians, it is based on a clause in the 1960 Jordanian penal code that is still used. In one section of the clause, Article 340, men are completely exempt from liability for honor-killing; in another section, a "lesser penalty" is imposed.

In Jordan and Iraq, the penalty for honor-killings is much lighter than for other crimes. Even more, according to the Iran Penal Code, Article 630, a husband is allowed to murder his wife without penalty if he suspects her of adultery.

Give him points for reminding why the "peace treaty" with Jordan was an utter embarrassment. Especially if the Israeli government does nothing to condemn any failure of their justice system to defend women targeted by Islamofascism. Yes, seriously.

Fisher calls Israel’s development of nuclear arms a move based on “obsessive fear,” not on reasonable self-interest. He also writes that today, since Israel has conventional arms superiority, it might as well give up the nuclear program. “Israel's conventional military forces are now far more powerful than all of its neighbors' militaries combined. Anyway, those neighbors have made peace with Israel save Syria, which has held out mostly for political reasons.”

Wow, it's always just fear factor that drives us and not a wish to live safely without evil belief systems to make living dangerous. Fisher should be ashamed of himself, and I'm glad Shapiro brought this to our attention.

AVRAHAM’S RESEARCH demonstrates that [Anat] Hoffman and Kallus are political animals, not just spiritual seekers motivated by their intense attachment to the Western Wall. And it strongly suggests that the prime motivation of the leaders of WoW is to advance an agenda consistent with their other political work.

The power of the Western Wall derives, in large part, from its role as a symbol of Jewish continuity, from the time of the First and Second Temples until today. Those who identify with organizations like Ir Amim and Emek Shaveh, which oppose Israeli archeological work in the Old City, as part of a sinister “Judaization of Jerusalem,” and who are allied with groups calling for the return of east Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount and Western Wall, to Palestinian control, are apparently not terribly moved by Jewish continuity and its symbols.

In truth, Hoffman has always been rather forthright that the Western Wall Plaza had value in her eyes primarily as a place to make political statements – “to be seen,” in her words – and provoke confrontation. Hoffman admits she feels no particular attachment to places, the Western Wall included. And her Reform Movement long ago declared, “One should not consider the Western Wall as possessing any sanctity.”

She has no answer for the question posed long ago by Hillel Halkin, “Are there no other places in Jerusalem to practice Jewish feminism, that they must do it at the one site where it is sure to infuriate large numbers of Orthodox Jews?” – a question that takes on special gravity given Hoffman’s admission that the Western Wall has no real sanctity in her eyes.

I would just note that it would actually be in poor form for Orthodox - or Haredis, the real loudmouths in this case - to make such a ruckus over a molehill, and the police were wrong to throw a Conservative group out of the plaza in the mid 90s. I'm actually disappointed if Rosenblum is letting Haredis off the hook by failing to condemn any reprehensible behavior on their part, and would be doubly so if the Conservatives in my family were harrassed - even though Conservative prayer customs are a lot simpler than Reform and women in the Conservative movement are far from practicing with male gear like tefillin - and found out Rosenblum failed to lift a finger in defense of my grandparents against hooligans.

But he's got a good point that Hoffman's claim she wants "to see and be seen" praying at the Western Wall is no substitute for saying she wants to pray to the Lord Our God, and thus renders her true motives suspect. That's just the giveaway of her provocation motivation.

Even so, it would be very bad for Orthodox Judaism if its adherents were to act as though being Orthodox alone makes you qualified for prayer at the Western Wall and not belonging to the movement makes it a crime to pray there, and that's why Orthodox adherents - especially Haredis - would do well to refrain from giving the image they're superficially hostile to non-Orthodox movements. And it's a pity that Orthodox have been allowing a poseur like Hoffman to all but monopolize legitimate arguments about women's rights and discrimination.

To keep phonies like Hoffman from hijacking the legit topics, that's why the Orthodox movement must start speaking out and not worrying about conflicts.

OBAMA GAVE THE LEAD TO A PERSON WHOSE MAJOR NEGOTIATING EXPERIENCE WAS FORMULATING, COORDINATING AND NEGOTIATING THE FAILED DEAL WITH NORTH KOREA- WENDY SHERMAN. NYTIMES DIES A FLUFF/PUFF PIECE ON HER TODAY:

I would like to talk, representing all those veterans, and say that several months ago in Detroit, we had an investigation at which over 150 honorably discharged and many very highly decorated veterans testified to war crimes committed in Southeast Asia, not isolated incidents but crimes committed on a day-to-day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command....

They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country.

THOSE STORIES OF WAR-CRIMES WERE KGB LIES MEANT TO HURT THE WAR EFFORT. THOSE LIES WORKED.

KERRY LIED, AND HIS LIES AIDED AND GAVE COMFORT TO THE ENEMY; ERGO: HE WAS A TRAITOR.

BONUS INSANITY: SHERMAN WAS NECK-DEEP IN THE FANNIE MAE CORRUPTION WHICH CAUSED THE HOUSING BUBBLE WHOSE BURSTING LED DIRECTLY TO OUR CURRENT ECONOMIC MALAISE.

WE ARE BEING LED BY FOLKS WHO HATE AMERICA AND WANT TO HELP OUR FOES GAIN PARITY WITH US.

Maybe there is hope for some people in the UK - comics writers included - to wake up and smell reality. If Hine's come around and realized something is wrong with the Religion of Peace, then in the forseeable future, he'll avoid going for such cheapie stunts as he did in Batman a few years ago.
